Kudukhov never put any hip pressure on him to defend Gomez's shots. He was looking to bail out and turn away every time. Makes me think he is hurt.

Agreed 100%. Compare his leg "defense" in this match to his recent bout vs Open Sat In addition he was avoiding contact on his feet instead of banging on Gomez' head like he usually would, and he went over from those gut wrenches way too easy. Whatever it is, I hope he is able to take care of it and be healthy at the Olympic games.Quote:

Not that I can be sure, of course, but just IMO. Props to Gomez, however, who really took it to him.
